[0036] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a gas injection structure for a rotary compressor. The rotary compressor includes a pump body section, which includes several cylinders 1, several intermediate plates, several pistons 2, a crankshaft, an upper cylinder head, and a lower cylinder head. The cylinders 1 are encapsulated between the upper and lower cylinder heads, and the intermediate plates are encapsulated between two adjacent cylinders 1. The pistons 2 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the cylinders 1, and the pistons 2 are fitted onto the crankshaft and rolled within the cylinders 1. Each cylinder 1 has a vane groove 3. The gas injection structure includes a gas injection hole 4, which is located on at least one of the intermediate plates, the upper cylinder head, and the lower cylinder head. The center distance between the gas injection hole 4 and its corresponding intermediate plate, upper cylinder head, or lower cylinder head is L. The inner diameter of the piston 2 is R. i , where L and R i satisfy:

[0038] ;

[0039] The inner diameter of cylinder 1 is R. d The height of cylinder 1 is D, the outer diameter of piston 2 is R0, the eccentricity of the crankshaft is e, and the angle of the air intake port 4 is β. When the displacement of cylinder 1 is between 9cc and 19cc, and the rotation angle of piston 2 relative to the centerline of vane groove 3 is 0°, L and R... d D, R i R0, e, and β satisfy:

[0040] .

[0041] This configuration, by precisely controlling the angle parameters of the air injection port 4 and the center distance between the air injection port 4 and other air injection components such as the intermediate plate, upper cylinder head, or lower cylinder head, effectively adjusts the air injection angle, air injection start angle, and air injection close angle. This high-precision control method can significantly improve the working efficiency and performance indicators of the air injection machine, enabling it to more accurately meet the needs of actual operating conditions, reduce equipment wear and failure rates caused by untimely or excessive air injection, achieve energy saving and cost optimization, and thus effectively enhance the overall performance and operating efficiency of the entire air injection system.

[0042] Optionally, when the displacement of cylinder 1 is in the range of 19cc-27cc, and the rotation angle of piston 2 with respect to the center line of vane groove 3 is 0°, L, R d D, R i R0, e, and β satisfy:

[0043] .

[0044] It is important to note that compressors of different displacements have specific requirements for the location and layout of the air injection port 4. Therefore, during the design phase, it is essential to perform targeted optimization based on the specific displacement parameters of the compressor to ensure optimal matching and operational reliability of the air injection system. Specifically, L and R... d D, R i The units for R0 and e are both millimeters.

[0045] Specifically, this embodiment provides the following technical solution: the pump body section includes two cylinders 1, an intermediate plate, two pistons 2, a crankshaft, an upper cylinder head and a lower cylinder head. The intermediate plate is encapsulated between the two cylinders 1, and the two cylinders 1 are encapsulated between the upper cylinder head and the lower cylinder head. The two pistons 2 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two cylinders 1, and the pistons 2 are fitted onto the crankshaft and rolled inside the cylinders 1.

[0046] Optionally, in order to ensure that the air supply path is clear and the injection position is controllable, so as to further facilitate the efficient mixing of the air supply gas and the working fluid in the compression chamber of cylinder 1, the air supply port 4 includes an inlet section and an outlet section that are interconnected. The inlet section is used to communicate with the air supply system, and the outlet of the outlet section faces the compression chamber of cylinder 1. The angle of the air supply port 4 is the tilt angle of the outlet of the outlet section.

[0047] In this embodiment, there are multiple air injection holes 4, which are respectively opened on two or three of the intermediate plate, the upper cylinder head, and the lower cylinder head. This arrangement can provide multiple air injection points for different cylinders 1 of the dual-cylinder compressor or different compression stages of the same cylinder 1, so as to achieve more flexible and precise air injection control, which helps to further optimize the compression process and improve the uniformity of the overall machine performance and the peak efficiency.

[0048] Optionally, to ensure that the outlet of the exhaust section is directly connected to the compression chamber, allowing the replenishing gas to enter the compression process most directly and quickly, reducing flow losses and pressure pulsations, when the replenishing port 4 is located on the intermediate plate, the outlet of the exhaust section is located on the end face of the intermediate plate facing the cylinder 1. Further, when the replenishing port 4 is located on the upper or lower cylinder head, the outlet of the exhaust section is located on the end face of the upper or lower cylinder head facing the cylinder 1.

[0049] Optionally, an air injection channel is provided on the intermediate plate, upper cylinder head, or lower cylinder head where the air injection port 4 is located, and the air injection channel connects the intake section and the air injection system.

[0050] In this embodiment, in order to strengthen the overall structural strength of the intermediate plate and ensure the stability of the air replenishment process, the intermediate plate is composed of an upper intermediate plate and a lower intermediate plate spliced ​​together. One cylinder 1 is located between the upper intermediate plate and the upper cylinder head, and the other cylinder 1 is located between the lower intermediate plate and the lower cylinder head.

[0051] Alternatively, the rotary compressor may also include a housing, within which the pump section is housed.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
